What is the most common sign of a weakness in general?
The most common would have to be – Lack of Self-Awareness! Most people, even when answering this question, will look elsewhere when trying to determine what the most common signs of weakness are. Therefore, given that most are ignoring what weaknesses they have themselves proves this theory. If everyone sorted out or at least tried to sort out their own weaknesses, there would be less weaknesses in the world. Subsequently, the common faults that everyone has mentioned previous to, or will mention after my answer, will hopefully not be as “common” in years to come. “The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice there is little we can do to change until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds.” Daniel Goleman’s (1985) book Vital Lies, Simple Truths note: even my answer is looking elsewhere for a sign of weakness!
